1	The Bells of Dublin (1991) more music like this by The Chieftains Joined by Nancy Griffith, the Irish group presents a superb concert, blending folk and country music. Well recorded and well photographed. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.99!
2	The Best of the Chieftains [1992] (1992) more music like this by The Chieftains Well, sort of. The 50 minutes of music here represent the best of the group's three albums (Chieftains 7, Chieftains 8, Boil the Breakfast Early) recorded for Columbia Records during 1977, 1978, and 1979. It's a good collection, and not a bad place to start for the new listener, though it won't offer any revelations for longtime fans, who'd tuned ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $5.88!
3	Celtic Spirit [Narada] (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Compilations of Celtic music clog candle store endcaps. They're stacked in point of purchase tents adjacent to cash registers, come free with two pounds of coffee, and generally try to cash in on the music's inherent grace. Too often, though, these comps are poorly executed pretenders with a connection to Celtic music that can only be described as ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $14.43!
4	On Christmas Night (2004) more music like this by Cherish the Ladies Christmas music lends itself so well to Celtic instrumentation that it's virtually impossible not to get caught up in the spirit of the season. The Irish-American quintet Cherish the Ladies, originally conceived for a concert series by Mick Maloney for the Ethnic Folk Arts Center and the National Endowment for the Arts, tackles the crowded ... see all copies from $9.43! new only from $13.31!
5	The Very Best of Celtic Christmas (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Culled from Windham Hill's five best-selling Celtic Christmas collections, this 19-track Best Of features atmospheric yuletide classics and originals from some of contemporary Celtic music's most celebrated performers. Highlights include Maighread Ni Dhomhnaill and Donal Lunny's lush "Third Carol for a Christmas Day," Altan's "Soillse Na Nollag ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $3.98!
6	Renaissance of the Celtic Harp (1972) more music like this by Alan Stivell People who hear this record are never the same again. Renaissance of the Celtic Harp, one of the most beautiful and haunting records ever made by anybody, introduced the Celtic harp to many thousands of listeners around the world. To call this music gorgeous and ravishing would be the height of understatement--indeed, there aren't words in the ... see all copies from $5.22! new only from $13.63!
7	Water From the Well (2000) more music like this by The Chieftains Ever since 1988's Irish Heartbeat, the Chieftains relied on guest artists on their own albums, ranging from Celtic peers to pop, rock, and country superstars, since the cameos virtually guaranteed that each new album would be treated as an event. That's also the case with 2000's Water in the Well, a traditional Irish folk/Celtic album filled with ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $11.06!
8	Lord of the Dance (1997) more music like this by Ronan Hardiman & Michael Flatley Ronan Hardiman's Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance is a strong recording of the glitzy, faux-Celtic stage extravaganza. While it won't make doubters belivers, anyone who has fallen in love with Flatley's storming stage show will find this a thoroughly entertaining affair. Rodney Batdorf, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.00! new only from $15.98!
9	Lightweights & Gentlemen (2007) more music like this by LAU LAU is something of a young Irish supergroup, a trio consisting of guitarist and vocalist Kris Drever, accordionist Martin Green, and fiddler Aidan O'Rourke. All three have made names for themselves as both sidemen to the stars and as solo or duo artists. Their first album as a trio is a bracing blend of traditional and modern elements -- the reel ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $15.70!
10	Haven (2006) more music like this by Flook You know what to depend on with Flook -- a wonderful interplay between flutes and whistles, backed by some marvelous guitar work and bodhran playing so sublime you'd swear there were three percussionists. They don't vary the formula much on their third release, but they don't have to. Instead they keep refining their sound, bringing in a few ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $5.98!
11 view cover	Celtic Wedding: Music of Brittany (1998) more music like this by The Chieftains The Chieftains selected the music that comprises Celtic Wedding: Music of Brittany from Tonious Breizhl, a publication about traditional tunes from Lower Brittany in France. The group runs through a collection of traditional Breton songs about weddings, several carols, and dances, capturing the spirit of these traditional French celebrations. ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $6.97!
12 view cover	Planxty (1973) more music like this by Planxty Christy Moore, Andy Irvine, Liam O'Flynn, and Dónal Lunny formed Planxty, a slang version of the Irish word "Slainte" meaning "good health," in 1973 after collaborating on the Christy Moore record Prosperous. Their self-titled debut arrived that same year to the delight of traditional Celtic music fans across the globe. Their tight, organic, and ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $15.65!
13 view cover	Blueprint (2003) more music like this by Natalie MacMaster While Natalie MacMaster has carved out her reputation mining Cape Breton fiddle traditions, Blueprint finds her combining her forceful style with contemporary acoustic music. This merging of genres takes place on a couple of levels. "A Blast," "Appropriate Dipstick," and "Jig Party" stick close to traditional themes, even though the presence of a ... see all copies from $5.25! new only from $5.25!
14 view cover	Special Reserve (2003) more music like this by Gaelic Storm The collection of previously released material and three new tracks on Gaelic Storm's Special Reserve captures the infectious, somewhat raw energy that has become this band's trademark. An occasional detour into some other corner of the world's music adds softer fragrances, but even "Swimmin' in the Sea," which sounds like a Paul Simon ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $15.41!
15 view cover	Harvest Storm (1992) more music like this by Altan Altan has long been one of the most consistently thrilling of the current crop of traditional Irish groups, and it's difficult to pick a single highlight from their catalog. But if pressed, many fans and critics would pick either Harvest Storm or the equally fine Red Crow. Although the program is a fairly typical collection of traditional reel ... see all copies from $9.26! new only from $16.37!
16 view cover	So Strong (2002) more music like this by Celtic Tenors see all copies from $3.40! new only from $8.09!
17 view cover	The Best of Altan: The Songs (2003) more music like this by Altan Altan has reached a point in its career where the band could conceivably exist off of the endless repackaging of its collected works. After nine solid albums of Celtic wizardry, they show no signs of slowing down, and seem the likely candidate to usurp the throne currently occupied by the Chieftains. The Best of Altan: The Songs is an anthology of ... see all copies from $13.83! new only from $15.65!
18 view cover	Dublin Lady (1987) more music like this by Andy Stewart A masterpiece and a must for Celtic music fans, it includes Manus Lunny. Steve Winick, All Music Guide see all copies from $12.00! new only from $14.19!
19 view cover	Another Country (1992) more music like this by The Chieftains A classic for lovers of good and heartfelt music played with joy. This has Paddy Moloney and the Chieftains combining forces with one of the best assemblages of country musicians put together. A diverse group it definitely is, stretching from Ricky Skaggs to Don Williams to Colin James running into Willie Nelson and Chet Atkins and so forth in a ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $11.06!
20 view cover	Sweeney's Dream (2001) more music like this by Kevin Burke Burke recorded this debut solo album as a 22-year-old in the Bronx in 1972. Much, though not all, of it consists of songs originating from County Sligo, where Burke's family had strong roots (although Burke himself was born in London). He varies the program from solo fiddle pieces to performances employing a variety of accompanists, the additional ... see all copies from $10.34! new only from $14.95!
21 view cover	Play on Light (1996) more music like this by Sileas Harps have been a part of Celtic music for over 1,000 years. Ireland has been famous for its harpists (one of the best known was Turlough O'Carolan), as has Scotland. Two Scottish harp players/vocalists who have been doing their part to keep Scottish/Celtic harp playing vital and fresh are Mary Macmaster and Patsy Seadon, who comprise the duo, ... see all copies from $2.38! new only from $5.88!
22 view cover	Live (2002) more music like this by Natalie MacMaster If you've been wondering what the big fuss is about Cape Breton fiddler Natalie McMaster, it may be because you haven't had the chance to see her perform live. This two-disc set doesn't provide quite the same experience as one of her concerts, but it does offer plenty of high-energy foot-stomping fun, as well as demonstrating the intriguing ... see all copies from $17.56! new only from $22.38!
23 view cover	Woman of the House (2005) more music like this by Cherish the Ladies Cherish the Ladies' tenth studio album is reliable without being redundant, soft without seeming slight, and as rollicking as it is sentimental. Joined by a small army of guests that read like Celtic and singer/songwriter royalty (Sharon Shannon/Triona Ni Dhomhnaill/Phil Cunningham/Kate Rusby/Eddi Reader), the Ladies have crafted a beautiful set ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $15.11!
24 view cover	Blackwater (1996) more music like this by Altan One is left in little doubt at the outset that Blackwater marks a significant change in the career of Altan, the best-selling act in the history of U.S. Celtic independent label Green Linnet. Even before you notice that the album is not on Green Linnet and that the group has moved up to major label Virgin, and even before you consult the personnel ... see all copies from $4.41! new only from $17.98!
25 view cover	Close to Home (2006) more music like this by Donal Clancy Donal Clancy is the son of Liam Clancy, one of the famous Clancy Brothers who brought Irish folk songs to a worldwide audience in the '60s and '70s. Donal picked up the guitar as a child after experimenting with both whistle and mandolin, and found himself hooked immediately. He has since gone on to success as a session guitarist and as a member ... see all copies from $13.08! new only from $15.65!
